Laundry Room Makeover

With The help of my wonderful husband we got to work building and making a space that works much better for our busy family and the tons of laundry that I do each week.

There were two main issues with this room, storage and a place to fold my laundry. While this is a large space it is a multi purpose space so it also houses a treadmill and doubles as a workout room as well. So it was making a space that allowed for each one to be done in here.

We starting with getting a stacking kit for the washer and dryer and moving a few outlets over this allowed for a ton of room to do the built in.

I bought baskets for each one of the kids this is where their socks, undies and jammies will go and I have made it their responsibility to come and get it and unload it. Lets see how that goes, lol.

I wanted storage but I didn't want to see it so we build this cabinet and found some doors that I repainted at habitat for humanity for a mere $5.00 each. The cabinet is pretty deep so it gives me a load of storage. I hang just about anything we wear so having this hanging rack makes a big difference, no more piles of clothes on the floor while I get everything on hangers.

Even though I really do not like doing laundry this space has already been broken in and I know it will make my life much easier. Know if only I could teach the kids to wear less clothes throughout the week, okay a girl can dream can't she.

Great great great room! You will enoj it!I wish I have place enough for something like that. So far, I can only dream that my kids don't use up as many clothes as they do -- just like you said.Keep on dreaming ;)

That looks amazing! You should check out Thirty-One for storage & organizational bags/totes to add to the space! We have lots of fun patterns/colors. I am an Independent Consultant :) https://www.mythirtyone.com/292516/

Welcome to Creative Raisins, my name is Lisa and I am addicted. That's right you heard me I am addicted to creating. You name it I love it. I love the challenge of putting on an amazing party and making a cake, decorating a room, trying my hand at sewing or a simple project with my kids.
I am a mother to 3 amazing and wonderful boys who keep me on my toes everyday. I am a wife to my husband of almost 10 years who tries very hard to be supportive but crosses his fingers that my ideas won't involve him.
Thanks for stopping in and hope you will stay to join us on this ride.
